Clinical Trial ID: NCT03498716
A Phase III, Multicenter, Randomized, Open-Label Study Comparing ATEZOLIZUMAB (Anti-PD-L1 Antibody) in Combination with Adjuvant ANTHRACYCLINE/TAXANE-Based Chemotherapy Versus Chemotherapy Alone in Patients with Operable Triple-Negative Breast Cancer
Description
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of adjuvant atezolizumab in combination with paclitaxel, followed by atezolizumab, dose-dense doxorubicin or epirubicin (investigator's choice), and cyclophosphamide, compared with paclitaxel followed by dose-dense doxorubicin or epirubicin (investigator's choice) and cyclophosphamide alone in patients with Stage II-III TNBC (Triple Negative Breast Cancer)
Objective
The primary objective of Study BIG 16-05/AFT-27/WO39391 is to evaluate the efficacy of adjuvant treatment with atezolizumab T-AC/EC compared with T-AC/EC alone in patients with newly diagnosed TNBC as measured by iDFS.
Treatment
Experimental: Atezolizumab + Chemotherapy
Participants will receive atezolizumab (in combination with chemotherapy as described below) every 2 weeks for 10 doses, followed by atezolizumab maintenance therapy every 3 weeks to complete 1 year of treatment from the first dose. Chemotherapy will consist of paclitaxel every week for 12 weeks, followed by dose-dense doxorubicin +cyclophosphamide or dose-dense epirubicin + cyclophosphamide every 2 weeks, for 4 doses supported with Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) or Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF)
Active Comparator: Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy will consist of paclitaxel every week for 12 weeks, followed by dose-dense doxorubicin +cyclophosphamide or dose-dense epirubicin + cyclophosphamide every 2 weeks, for 4 doses supported with Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) or Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF). Paclitaxel will be administered by IV, 80 mg/m every week for 12 weeks.
